Lu Yu sat on the platform on the fourth floor, looked at the hall below with his feet crossed, and then said with a smile: "Actually...... I've always wanted to open a store. ”

"Open a store?"

Jiang Yi sneered on the side: "You also want to do this kind of skin and meat business?"

"Hahaha! I don't have that much courage," Lu Yu smiled: "I'm actually very selfish and evil, I hope that all the women in the world belong to me...... Well, more than 930 billion? I'm just over 930 billion, just a little bit short......."

"Poof!"

Jiang Yi couldn't help laughing, looked at Lu Yu's serious face, and then asked, "Then what do you want to do?"

Lu Yu said: "Do you know why I came back to the capital this time?"

Jiang Yiyi: "I can't stay in the academy anymore." ”

"Uh......" Lu Yu was stunned, and then said embarrassedly: "No...... That's not just the reason, but I also want to ......."

Lu Yu said halfway, and then the corners of his eyes twitched: "The good atmosphere has been ruined by you...... Okay, well, actually, I'm here to help the first princess's younger brother get the throne. ”

Jiang Yiyi: "Oh, do you want the Lu family to support him?"

"That's enough? Others look up to our Lu family, but we ourselves can't take ourselves too seriously. The addition of the Lu family will not change anything, but will make the Lu family, who is tied to that prince, suffer from it and will be suppressed by His Majesty, after all...... The current situation of the Lu family, to be honest, is mostly given by His Majesty. ”

Jiang Yi was puzzled: "Then what are you going to do......?" Set up shop here?"

Lu Yu smiled: "Well, open a store, and then ...... It's a restaurant. ”

"Restaurant?"

"It's just... A restaurant that is only used for eating and drinking. ”

"You stinky boy, you always like to say things that I can understand, but I don't understand at all, damn it!"

......

So in this way, Lu Yu made a simple modification to Cuixiang Building and turned it into a restaurant.

Moreover, except for the main hall in the middle, the second to fourth floors have not been renovated, and no tables and chairs have even been arranged, and it is obvious that guests are not going to go upstairs.

In just three days, everything was ready, although the girls upstairs were all in danger and ...... If there is no benefactor, there will be no income, and if there is no income, not only will their own lives be affected, but even those who rely on themselves to survive, including relatives, friends and subordinates, I am afraid that they will not be able to live immediately. But even in this atmosphere, this Cuixiang Building is still open.

Lu Yu didn't do any opening celebrations, no firecrackers, no gongs and drums, and no rituals, at most, he just removed the twelve lanterns at the door and replaced them with four larger red lanterns, of course, the people nearby didn't know the purpose of changing these lanterns at all.

Lu Yu didn't even prepare any dishes, so he stood directly outside the store, watched the people come and go, and then muttered shamelessly: "Huh, why didn't anyone come in to eat?"

I don't care at all, when people come in, what do they want to eat.

Jiang Yi watched him from upstairs and watched how funny he was.

But seeing that he was looking at the east with a nostalgic face, he muttered: "Now that I think about it, it used to be in this direction, as long as I walked a few steps to the city gate, I could eat that noodle soup, and now I really miss it, so today...... Why don't you make noodles? ”

Lu Yu smiled lightly, turned his head and walked back to the Cuixiang Building, and went straight to the kitchen.

Noodles can be said to be the simplest diet, if you don't know how to make noodles at home, it is really a joke, and every family, I am afraid that they have their own tricks to make noodles, which can be regarded as the taste of home.

Therefore, among the restaurants, there are very few people who make noodles for a living, at least, not the main one.

Today, Lu Yu is going to make noodles.

The best flour was ground by him again, so that the finest particles of flour also became light and thin that can be melted into fingerprints with a flick of his fingers.

Then take the deepest well water from the backyard, and when it comes out, there are ice crystals on the side of the barrel.

With this kind of water and noodles, the noodles can be made more firm and smooth.

Not only that, Lu Yu also added a broken spar to the face, and the slow spiritual energy flowed out, making this face look even fairer and shinier.

Noodles are a science, and it is also the most important thing for a pastry chef to be diligent or not.

Because whether it is gentle or forceful, this side can be reconciled, on the surface it is just a difference in the length of time.

But in fact, whether you use force or not determines the final taste of the noodles after they are formed.

And Lu Yu's favorite method is to use a wooden stick that is at least the thickness of a man's waist, the surface is smooth and already shiny, and forcefully presses, flattens, flips, folds, and then continues to press into a dough.

This is repeated at least dozens of times, and the moisture in the noodles volatilizes in this seemingly unstoppable movement, making the noodles harder and harder.

In the end, it turned out to be like a stone, and ordinary people used all their strength to poke it with one finger, and at most it stabbed it in the middle, and then it could no longer be stabbed.

Only then do you break the eggs, stir the whites and yolks together, sprinkle them on top of the dough, wait a while, and then continue kneading.

When all the eggs are mixed with the dough and the whole dough is slightly yellowed, then roll it out with a large wooden stick.

Very thin, only slightly thicker than a fingernail.

The whole sheet is of this thickness, and it is slightly transparent, and you can see the wood grain of the table under the dough.

At this time, a sharp knife is used to cut the dough into noodles that are only one penny wide.

grabbed a handful, shook it, and the noodles flowed like a woman's hair, and then shook it the table, and it snapped, indescribably crisp.

The preparation of the noodles is considered complete.

Take a large pot, fill two large jars of water, boil, like an orchid leaf, wait for the water to boil for a quarter of an hour, a layer of white foam floats on the surface, and then skim it off, and remove the orchid leaf. After that, put in two dehaired whole chickens, 10 catties of fresh beef, 20 catties of lamb leg bones, 10 catties of fish bones, bake the fire to the maximum, cover the pot, and press it with a boulder.

Wait for the water to boil, the white gas spews out from the edge of the pot, and the boulder jumps and jumps, then boils the pot on low heat, and puts duck blood along the edge of the pot.

After a while, a thick layer of gray foam appeared in the pot, which looked thick and looked like moss.

Use a large spoon to skim off the foam along the edges, and the soup exposed underneath is crystal clear, only a little more amber than the white water.

Then it is simmered and the lid is closed.

Take a small pot, add spicy seeds, pepper, pepper, star anise, cloves, angelica, orchid leaves...... and other twenty-seven flavors, twenty-one of which are not commonly used condiments by people in this world, they are all natural spices that Lu Yu collected by himself or ordered others to collect them in his spare time when he traveled around the continent.

Boil for half an hour, and then fill a few catties of minced meat from the 'Sea Rainbow Beast'. This sea rainbow beast is a kind of amphibian creature living in the extreme north of the continent, because it hunts in the sea all the year round, the meat is firm and elastic, and sometimes goes ashore, by the essence of the sun and the moon, so that the meat has a little mountain game, although the first smell is fishy, but only need to boil the water to boil, it will get rid of its fishy smell, but there is a natural aroma, sweet, its weight is more than ten times more than ten times stronger than beef.

After adding the meat, it will be boiled for another hour, and after the pot is boiled, a fragrance will come to the nostrils, making people drool unconsciously.

But that's not all, Lu Yu took out a small bottle from the storage bracelet, this is a gray-black seasoning that he 'brews' with several spices and mineral salt, and then with a few spices, it looks a little like the soy sauce of the former world, but the taste is stronger and more layered.

For example, if you take it directly, you will feel that there is a umami in the salty sweetness, and when you boil it in warm water, the sweetness will disappear in half an hour, and it will be replaced with a grassy aroma...... Layered on top of each other, there are dozens of different flavors, and different cooking methods will refine different flavors.

The small pot has been boiling for an hour and a half, the soup is almost dry, add half more, then pour in this seasoning, slowly open the lid and boil with a simmer, and then turn off the heat after another hour, and cover the pot, so that all kinds of complex flavors gradually brew in a warm and closed space...... Brewing a delicacy that no one in the world knows about.

In this way, the preparation is complete.

Lu Yu glanced at the sky, from the morning to now, it was already evening.

He smiled lightly, pulled out a handful of the thin noodles with a light yellow strength, and shook the basket up and down in the cauldron ten times, and quickly took them out in less than a few breaths.

The basket with the noodles and water was poured into a large bowl, exactly half a bowl of water, revealing a small half of the noodles.

At this time, lift the lid of the small pot, use a spoon to put some out, pour it in the bowl, on top of the noodles, and re-cut some green onions, mugwort leaves, and sprinkle them in the middle.

He turned around and put the big bowl in front of Xiao Ruan, and said softly, "Taste it, how does it taste?"

Grunt.

Xiao Ruan, who has always been breezy and calm, couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

And the rest of the people were even more miserable, as early as when Lu Yu lifted the lid of the small pot, the people in this Cuixiang Building, no matter how they thought, were awakened by a smell of aroma and gathered over with the smell.

The taste is very strange, the first time I smell it, I don't know if I like it or not, but I just can't stop wanting to smell it, one bite after another, I haven't been able to understand my heart, my mouth understands first, and the saliva flows out of my own way.

There is a huge kitchen, and only the sound of people swallowing saliva remains.

Xiao Ruan picked up the chopsticks, picked up a ball of noodles, and put it to his mouth to cool it gently, but when he took a breath, the strange aroma went directly into his nose, and the entire seven orifices were channeled, and he obviously felt refreshed, as if even his eyes could taste its taste.

Put it in your mouth and suck it gently...... The noodles were smooth, and with a snort, they were all sucked in, as if they had gotten into it on its own...... Biting again, it was surprisingly springy.

The act of biting alone seems to have several different levels of feelings.

First it was slippery, then it was soft, and then, like a broken leather whip, burst open in the mouth, and even the subtle sound of teeth hitting each other could be heard.

Can be subsequently ...... Xiao Ruan forgot about this charming taste.

Instead, the smell that can't be described at all fills the entire mind and body.

Spicy, salty, fresh, not waiting to swallow, but sweet again, the throat seems to stretch out a small hand, forced to pull them into the stomach, but the tongue is unwilling, reluctant, just want to continue to hover in the mouth.

But in the end...... Still swallowed in one bite.

Because the next chopsticks were handed to his mouth again.

Just one bite at a time, before Xiao Ruan could react, she ate all the bowls of noodles.

Then without waiting for Lu Yu to explain, he raised the soup bowl, drank all the bowls of soup with a bang, and then gave a long burp, his forehead, eyebrows, and neck were already sweating.

A good meal...... Refreshing.
